 NEW YORK, Feb. 21.-The Stars
 Washington correspondent teleRraphs
 that II IS no longer any doubt here that
 Carlisle is to be Secretary of the Treas
 ury. It is also thought to be settled
 that Pendleton is going into the cabinet
 and that Garland is going out. There
 does not seem to be az much certainty
 as to Colonel Lamont, but II IS the
 opinion that he will be made postmaster
 general. He has wonderful executive
 ability and great skill n dealing with
 men.
 With the speakership booming E
 pressing question, Rsndalfs candidacy
 will be stoutly resisted by the revenue
 retormers. If Carlisle IS no; ID the next house, the absence of Morrison will be c
 great loss to the refOrmers. Hatch, or
 Missouri, and Mills, of Texas, gre talk
 ed about as candidates for the speaker
 ship. Both being cODfsderhtss. the
 question will arise whether that will
 make the men unavailable for the speak
 ershlp. The belief IS the party can nOS safely rest upon the assumption that
 war IS ended and the country Is at peace.
